Tickets for the inaugural Formula 1 Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix, which is scheduled from Nov. 16-18, 2024, sold out rapidly and long before the event.

Ticket prices for the three-day F1 event in Las Vegas began at $500 for Standing Room passes near The Venetian MSG Sphere. The starting price for tickets elsewhere on the circuit was $2,000 for the weekend. The weekend’s highest ticket prices for the Las Vegas F1 event exceeded $10,000.

Today, there are only two methods to obtain Vegas F1 tickets.

Several F1 Vegas weekend passes can be found on secondary ticketing websites priced at over twice their original value. Moreover, most casinos in Nevada’s Strip have bought tickets to offer as part of package deals.

The deal involving a hotel stay and Grand Prix ticket necessitates that guests lodge at the hotel for three nights to secure a weekend ticket. While most establishments simply incorporate tickets accessible for purchase by anyone, one casino operator on the Vegas Strip is providing a viewing spot that is exclusively available to its guests.

MGM Resorts Las Vegas F1 ticket packages

MGM Resorts will construct grandstands for observing the Las Vegas Grand Prix in front of its most emblematic property. To secure a seat in the Bellagio Grandstands, located in front of the iconic fountains and casino, one must book a three-night stay at any participating MGM Resorts property.

MGM Resorts’ Chief Commercial Officer, Steve Zanella, stated:

In just over a year, F1 enthusiasts from around the world will experience firsthand how Las Vegas hosts a party. Besides the Bellagio Grandstands, that will redefine event viewing, we will orchestrate a non-stop celebration fitting for this global extravaganza.

By staying at any of the following MGM Resorts properties, guests can secure a seat at the heart of the Vegas Strip on the F1 circuit:

  • Vdara and Aria
  • Bellagio
  • Delano and Mandalay Bay
  • Grand MGM
  • MGM Park
  • New York, New York
  • Luxor
  • Excalibur

Guests of MGM Resorts also have the option to select seats in the Paddock Grandstands if they wish to be located elsewhere on the circuit. The package costs are identical for both locations.

F1 prices in Las Vegas at MGM begin at $2,827 per night for a hotel room with a single race seat. If you add another ticket to the package, the starting price will increase to $5,655 per night for two seats in any location.

Every property imposes a resort fee for the hotel rooms. Following their launch, the packages experienced a massive demand, leading to an hour-long wait for purchases. However, the rush subsided swiftly, and by the afternoon, the reservation process had returned to normal.

Caesars F1 Vegas packages

During the Formula One launch party at Caesars Palace, Caesars unveiled its F1 hotel and ticket packages. Contrary to the offerings by MGM Resorts, guests at Caesars can opt for a hotel and casino situated off the Vegas Strip.

The regional president of Caesars Entertainment, Sean McBurney, stated:

“We’re extremely excited to be at the heart of what we believe will be one of the most exhilarating nights Las Vegas has ever witnessed. Our properties are ideally located for easy access to the race, grandstands, and paddocks. If you’re planning on experiencing a night filled with adrenaline and competition in Las Vegas, we look forward to welcoming you to one of our properties next November.”

The following properties have hotel and Formula 1 ticket packages available from Caesars:

  • Horseshoe (Bally’s)
  • Palace of Caesar
  • Cromwell
  • Flamingo
  • Harrah’s
  • Linq
  • Paris
  • Hollywood Planet
  • Rio

Prices for Caesar’s ticket and hotel packages start from $2,600 per night at Rio, with seating in the East Harmon Zone of the circuit. In comparison, the starting price for the equivalent ticket and accommodation at Caesars Palace is $3,151 per night.

The cost rises with improved rooms within each property and seat location at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Packages at Caesars Palace that include rooms and Paddock Club tickets begin at $8,502 per night. The price for the same race ticket coupled with a suite in the Augustus Tower is $25,459 per night.

Besides the costs of the room and tickets, hotel resort fees and a service fee for the LV F1 passes also apply.

More Vegas Strip Grand Prix visitors’ packages

The majority of hotels on the Vegas Strip are operated by MGM Resorts and Caesars. Nonetheless, a number of other establishments also offer Las Vegas Formula 1 hotel and ticket packages.

Resorts World Las Vegas

A variety of hotel and race packages are on offer from Resorts World, a race sponsor, with prices starting at $35,000.

The Zouk Legacy package is priced at $200,000 and includes a hotel suite, two weekend passes to the Las Vegas Grand Prix Paddock Club, and bottle service. This package also features a unique presentation of the Tiesto performance at the Zouk nightclub. Additionally, the purchaser’s photo will be displayed on the hotel tower’s screen.

The Venetian

The Venetian is not only a sponsor of the race but also offers a select quantity of Las Vegas Formula 1 suites and ticket packages for The Venetian and The Palazzo. These packages can only be obtained with grandstand tickets. The pricing at The Venetian begins with a basic king suite and weekend passes starting at $2,952.33 per night.

The Palazzo

Starting prices for suites at The Palazzo are $3,252.33 per night with a minimum stay requirement of three nights. The cost increases with the size of the suite.

Wynn

Also a sponsor, Wynn Las Vegas offers a variety of LVGP packages. The most expensive F1 package they offer is priced at a whopping $1 million!

Budget-friendly F1 Las Vegas options

As of the time this article was written, both Cosmopolitan and Wynn have yet to unveil their hotel and ticket packages. For those seeking a bargain, it’s advisable to monitor the rates of Best Western hotel. The modest hotel located above Casino Royale is guaranteed to be more affordable than the casino resorts.
